Evanston’s Economic Development Committee discussed three proposals Wednesday night for use of federal American Rescue Plan Act funding including a $2 million request from Northlight Theatre.
Northlight Executive Director Tim Evans told the committee the theater has raised more than half of the $25 million required to construct the new theater at 1012-1016 Church St., and the $2 million in grant funding from the city would help bring the pandemic-delayed project to a successful conclusion.
